“This is supposed to be a clone of Initio Oud for Greatness (name and bottle very similar so anyone can Google to see what I am referring to). Now, I have never smelled Initio Oud for Greatness as one bottle costs $350 (for a 3 oz bottle). I just cannot justify paying that much. So, I am not sure how similar they are, although I heard they are very close (several reviewers online said they are identical after the dry down). This is a performance beast for me. Twelve hours later I was still getting whiffs off my shirt. It has a nice spice (saffron and patchouli), leather, and oud. Honestly, it should not be a blind buy as some of the reviewers are giving it bad reviews. It is not because of the quality of the scent, but for some, it can be quite polarizing. I personally love the scent and would not hesitate to buy it again. The presentation was very nice also (the box that it came in and the bottle).”
